CBSRetired NFL coach Jimmy Johnson gave some great motivational speeches to his teammates on 'Survivor: Nicaragua' during the season opener. But how long will he survive?

About halfway through the season premiere of "Survivor: Nicaragua," the biggest question on my mind was NOT whether Jimmy Johnson will last more than a few more days on the island, and NOT whether the dumb blond guy who was quickly nicknamed "Fabio" really expected to find giant fences to protect the castaways from dangerous creatures in the jungle.

I was wondering why the CBS censors were going crazy with their pixelation tools.

I swear I wasn't looking at the guys' boxer briefs as they walked around the island, made alliances and talked strategy -- until those annoying pixelation blurs kept popping up on my TV screen, over and over again.

That just made me curious. What the heck was going on?

Were the network censors being over-sensitive? Or did the young Alpha males keep having unintentional happy-moments that had to be blurred out?

And since the CBS editors were in such a pixelation mood, the bigger question is: Why did they subject us to so many other horrifying images -- like sagging man boobs? I mean, did we really have to see a 67-year-old retired football coach walking around shirtless with all that wrinkly skin?

That was a scary sight! And maybe that should have been pixelated . . .

CBSJud Birza, whose tribemates nicknamed him Fabio, acted like a goofball during the first few days in the jungle on 'Survivor: Nicaragua.' But he made the otherwise ho-hum show entertaining.

All kidding aside (well maybe half-kidding), I thought the first episode of the new season was sort of a snoozer. That dumb water gutter/ puzzle challenge was really lame.

The only thing that made the show kind of interesting was the airhead, Fabio, whose actual name is Jud Birza. The 22-year-old model, actor and drummer is such a goofball, you have to wonder how badly he'll be blind-sided at tribal council.

Also interesting was Fabio's female counterpart, Wendy Jo. She was even dumber than Fabio. After all, she broke three cardinal rules for surviving the first few days of Survivor:

(1) Don't act loopy.

(2) Don't talk too much, especially if your nickname at home is Chatterbox.

(3) Don't annoy the hell out of everyone in your tribe.

CBSThe first victim of 'Survivor: Nicaragua' was Wendy Jo DeSmidt-Kohlhoff, a goat farmer from Montana.

This crazy goat farmer did all three! Didn't she watch enough episodes of Survivor to realize how much first impressions count?? And why didn't she listen to her own husband, who warned her not to be too chatty or she'll be the first castaway voted off the island?

Survivor fans -- What did you think? Did you like the season opener?

Do you think Jimmy Johnson will manipulate all of those star-struck castaways? Do you think the other Jimmy escaped from an insane asylum and is secretly plotting to murder all of his tribemates while they're sleeping? (That guy really gives me the creeps.)

NEXT EPISODE: Wednesday, Sept. 22, 8 p.m. on CBS

STRONG RATINGS

-- Looks like Jimmy Johnson helped CBS score well in its ratings. Wednesday’s season premiere of "Survivor: Nicaragua" was the highest rated TV show in the 8 p.m. time slot that night, averaging 12 million viewers.

-- "America's Got Talent" also scored big Wednesday night, during its two-hour season finale on NBC. The show averaged 16.1 million viewers -- the largest audience AGT ever had during its five seasons on the air.

DOES 'FABIO' HAVE A SERIOUS SIDE?

Survivor castaway “Fabio” might have a serious side, after all. In this CBS.com video clip, he speaks sincerely about 26-year-old teammate Kelly Bruno, who is competing with a prosthetic leg.
